Interested in a Grant for Small Business Expansion

Two and a half years ago I started a business quite literally 'on a shoestring'. It has grown over the months and I have struggled continually to keep it going. I need to expand: specifically on stock (merchandise) and advertising, as well as some funds to help with building upgrades and employees that I would like to be able to hire. If there are grant funds available for women run businesses, I would like to know how to apply.

The business I began two and a half years ago is the BACK ROOM BEAD SHOP. It is in conjunction with my art studio and Gallery. It has been suprisingly successful, in that it has grown fairly quickly, although I've only had limited funds to put into it. I have put all proceeds/sales back into the shop, and also put personal funds toward it as well.

I currently have no debt, but I do have a need for funding for the items mentions: additional stock/merchandise, building upgrades, possible employees, etc. This area of Oregon is poised for a growth spurt in the very near future due to new industry and new retail companies coming. I believe that if I have funds I will be able to take advantage of the influx of new people and turn them into customers.
